Family First: Prevention Clearinghouse Adds Services to the Review Queue
Although there was not a public call for nominations, the IV-E Prevention Services Clearinghouse last week added 14 programs and services to the list of interventions to be rated, joining six already in the queue. To date, of the 25 that have been reviewed, 11 received a rating of “does not currently meet criteria,” including all three kinship navigator programs. One kinship navigator program awaits review.
NACBH members are encouraged to review the list of completed and pending reviews and give some thought to potential nominations when the next public call is issued. |

Got Transition and the American Academy of Pediatrics have updated their Transition Coding and Reimbursement Tip Sheet, which supports the delivery of recommended health care transition services in pediatric and adult primary and specialty care settings.
The tip sheet includes an updated list of transition-related CPT codes, including new codes relating to telephone services, online digital evaluation and management services, digitally stored data service, and remote physiologic monitoring and treatment management services. It also includes a new clinical vignette with recommended coding suggestions, a table displaying what type of providers can bill for each code, whether the service is delivered face-to-face or remotely, and a letter template that can be customized to encourage payer recognition of transition-related codes. |
